LEAST Favorite Feature in iOS 7

-music app
They should make lyrivs viewer taller and wider, it shows less lyrics showing compared to iOS6, especially on the 3.5" screen

-dock
It depends on your wallpaper, certain wallpaper will make the dock loksmso ugly
3d dock is much better
 
Calendar!!!!!
Parallax (quickly shut it off)
Folder colors/Transparency
Slow Animations
Dots
Bottom Safari Toolbar (sometimes it's unresponsive to get it to pop back up)
 
The calendar is a mess especially the way it is presented in NC.

The signal balls are strange. I don't like them.

The missed tab in NC is pretty pointless.

iOS 7 for iPad needs a lot of optimization. It's lacking some detail that I've gotten used to with apple.
 
I agree with everyone who mentioned iOS 7 on an iPad. It literally doesn't seem better in any instances (except maybe with the new API's). It is actually worse in some cases:

-Multi-tasking previously displayed 6 apps, now we get 3 (waste of space).
-Only 9 apps are displayed in a folder at a time (previously it displayed 20).
-The 4 finger pinch (to return to the Springboard) has an abrupt animation.
-The 4 finger swipe up to show multi-tasking apps doesn't match the actual UI animation.

Let's hope iOS 7.1 for iPad gets some polish and UI re-thinking. :confused:

I have zero issues with the way it is in iOS 6. I like seeing a badge over the App Store icon. I also like reading the update description before I install it. Having slightly better battery life with it turned off is a bonus.

Not sure if anyone has mentioned this, but you can still see the update descriptions after apps have been automatically updated. :)
 
The lockscreen especially the arrow for the slide! The current lock screen is much much better. :)

The rubbish Phone App! Which I thought was a critical feature of a phone.

What don't you like about it? The UI seems the same to me except with more circles and translucent background stuff.
 
It may seem small but i hate the size of the clock in the top status bar!
 
Parallax - useless and increased battery usage
Spotlight - very inconvenient because the home screen is swiped so often (mis-swipes = spotlight opening)
background app updates - I like the feeling of seeing new app updates and updating myself. It's exciting. (at least it's possible to turn off)
the app icon redesigns - bland
long animations - wth
the iOS 7 theme - bland

If they could have added control center and some other iOS 7 tweaks to iOS 6, it would have been enough for me.
 
The selection box that comes up when you select a state in safari on any form. It feels odd and unnecessary to use any animation/sound there. I feel like I am playing wheel of fortune.

Firstly, the back button, which used to be easier to fix a number using one hand:

2ndly, the Circular button more towards the center and not edge to edge which makes it harder to type with one hand.

3rd, the icons at the bottom are not appealing, they dont jump out to make it easy for you to choose.

4th - no add new contact button on the dialer.
 
The weird things that iOS 7 did to my wallpaper (including screwing with the aspect ratio/zoom and the funky parallax wallpaper wiggling effect) and the new Dock style. I would personally like the style a bit more if Apple had just committed to using blurred translucency across the board. Currently, it seems like some UI elements have a tiny bit of translucency in certain apps, but not in others. I also miss the translucent keyboard (it seems like the keyboard would have been a perfect place to incorporate the new iOS 7 style blurring effect).

The "add new contact" text button appears at the top after dialing a few numbers.

But I see what you mean. :D My thought is maybe Apple moved the less used functions out of the main window and into more inconspicuous areas of the UI.

Another one, the Music.app lost basic functionality (being able to play all songs from a genre, in addition to other things). :mad:

And as just pointed out in another thread, if you use a filter on a photo, or "Edit" a photo in any way, it is saved as a 1MP image. :mad::mad::mad:
 
I'm really not a fan of the new folder grid layout. Seriously Apple? 3X3? At least make the folders 4X4 or 4X5 to match the desktop grid layout.
 
Spotlight holds your last search term and keeps it in the search field. Thats great I can get to spotlight from any page, but now I have to clear the last thing I looked for before I start typing a new search term.

Also wish I could hide Featured Stations in iTunes Radio so I don't have to see Jared Leto's eyeliner anymore.
 
The animations and transition make the phone feel slow. There needs to be an option to turn those "features" off. Redesigned Calendar app is also lacking.
 
I am simply not a fan of the dock. At all.

But I've come to ignore it. I know it's not going to change until there's a JB, where I can change it myself.

Parallax and the new Notification Center. Seeing notifications should be a mindless, quick swipe down. Now there's three tabs, two of debatable importance.
Click to expand...

+1. Parallax was cool for an hour and then I had to turn it off. I couldn't quite figure out what it was about Notification Center that was annoying me but that's it. And the text seems large, even after I adjust it in settings. Or maybe too much spacing between notification.
